Abstract excerpt
We report here a novel human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*5411 allele identified by sequence-based typing in a Chinese individual. The novel B*5411 is identical to B*5404, with the exception of four base substitutions at position 120 (A>C), 134 (G>C), 143 (C>G), and 156 (A>T) of exon 3 resulting in codon no. 131, changed from AGC (Ser) to CGC (Arg), and codon no. 143, changed from ACC (Thr) to TCC (Ser).
